Tai Felton: Everything you need to know

Felton caught three passes for 25 yards in 17 games during the 2025 season. Felton saw the majority of his action on special teams and played just 49 offensive snaps during his rookie campaign. The 22-year-old will look to play a bigger role in Minnesota's offense during the 2026 season.

Felton went without a target while taking the field for only one of the Vikings' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys. Felton notched his second reception of the season in a Week 14 blowout win over the Commanders, but he went back to having a non-existent role on offense in a more tightly contested Week 15 contest. The rookie third-round pick out of Maryland is expected to continue seeing most of his playing time on special teams rather than offense while all of the Vikings' top three receivers -- Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor -- are available.

Felton had one reception for 10 yards on his only target in Sunday's win over Washington. Felton got playing time (11 snaps) late in a blowout win. He has just two receptions and two targets this season, as he's played almost al his snaps on special teams.
